My Freeper sister from Longmont, who is the one who first told me about FR, was there with us that day. And my parents from Boulder - who were the first to tell me: "Turn on your TV at 10:30pm, channel 12 Denver - you've just GOT to hear this guy named Rush Limbaugh on his TV show!" ... they also came up.

Somewhere I have saved a clipping from the local city rag, with a photo of my sister. During the quick downpour that morning, we took our 4 & 2 year olds to shelter under an Old Town awning, while she still stood out there guarding our stroller. It was a very lightweight model, and she turned it upside down to hold it over her head to keep off the rain. A city newspaper photographer snapped the photo, and captioned it "Stroller Head". Sub-caption was, "a woman who identified herself as Leslie from Longmont takes shelter during a downpour". Heh heh! Stroller-Head.

Dang, I miss her!! Died of lung cancer that started out as endometrial cancer and moved to the lymph nodes and then the lungs and kidneys.

My Freeper sister from Longmont...

So sorry to hear she passed.

If you would please jog my memory and remind me, what was her Freeper name?
